iang2911 423 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 "Asked by The Herald if he had had any talks with Mr Green about buying a stake in Rangers, Mr McColl, one of Scotland's richest men, replied: "I am not one of the guys there just now."However, declaring he was watching with interest, Mr McColl added: "I think it is a great opportunity for Rangers to build on their youth programme, and I think we will come out of it stronger."I have got to take my hat off to Green. He has been quite tenacious and he has managed to get it where it can now be built on.

Comeoffit 152 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 nor will comeofit! Puts his we argument in the shade a bit!Puts what wee argument in the shade? This doesnt change anything that ive criticised green for. Ive only moaned about his lying, shit talking and patronising of us. Nothing McColl has said there changes any of that.Id feel a lot better if McColl put his dough where his mouth is. He surely wouldnt miss a million or two for 10% of us. Still a bit worrying he wont do business with charlie.What do people really expect McColl to say? Fuck green hes at it? It goes without saying that we should all get behind Rangers.Instead of filling you shite posts up with smileys, try saying something worth reading.

Financial advice yes but cash no.Yes, because he knows investing money in a successful football club is money he'll never see again. How you think he got his millions, not by pissing it away on things that cant make a profit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also says 'I take my hat off' to Green, not a comment of anyone who is critical of his ways or methods, rather a comment which compliments him. Surely if even Jim McColl can come round to being that supportive of Green, even you must say your argument is weakened at least ffs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All ive ever said is that he tells lies sometimes and he patronises our support. Nothing McColl says will change that. I like to form my opinions on what charlie actually says and then does, not by what other people say about him.I think you'll be waiting a long time before McColl puts his money in while charlie is still the dude. Ill stand corrected if it happens. McColl cant say anything other than what he said without destabilising us. Im hoping charlie convinces me one day, but its not looking good from my point of view.

liquid111 51 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 In my opinion, the McColl (and Walter Smith endorsed) move for the club was actually the most serious and viable out of the bids from the Scottish businessmen.I have a lot more time for McColl (who made an offer, had it rejected, and moved on), over the other posturers and game-players who seemed to think they can get the club for a song by hyping fans into a frenzy via internet and news briefings.There may still be a role for McColl to play yet. Who knows. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
